Whom we thank, and whom we ask ...

Introduction

Situation

DESECE is grateful for all its donors that have been funding the organization since 1993. The main donor who has been funding almost 90 % of the budget since 2006 has announced his pull out in 2018, with their policy stating that they only fund an organisation for a maximum of 9 years, and DESECE is proud to be privileged to be funded for 3 more years making it 12 years, however, on a yearly reduced budget from 2016.

Now DESECE is looking for new donors who are willing to support our programs to further deliver the services to our beneficiaries. On the other hand DESECE is looking for donors who can finance its income generating projects, so as to become self-sustainable in future.

Our Donation Projects

Furniture for the Conference Hall 6.000,- Euros

DESECE is grateful to have found donors who enabled us to build our new conference hall. The hall is still missing some tables and chairs to host conferences in an even more professional way. The equipment for presentations, seminars and workshops like laptop, projector and addressing system was already donated.

Fleckvieh for the Income Generating Project per Cow 1.800,- Euros

DESECE strives to become independent of international donors one day in future. That's why the organization is looking for 18 Fleckvieh Cows, which would enable us to carry all the costs for the organization, thus making it much easier to find donors for the programs. The cows give much more milk than local breeds and are not competing with the surrounding farmers as there are companies in Western Kenya who guarantee to purchase the milk and we could even encourage farmers in the neighbourhood to produce fodder for us because our farm is too small.
